Can you look that up for me and post a link? Everything I just googled said no. Everything I've ever read said no.

continuing to search, and so far everything says no. Interceptor is specific to crustaceans, which AEFW are not.

Lol this is crazy because I swear I read it lots before using it, and watched them fall off after using it. My sps have never been happier, and I certainly don't have AEFW anymore. But I may be eating my words as I cannot find anything on it either... So honestly not sure what the heck is up lol. But I got the pills from another member on here who also dosed it to treat AEFW with success. Im a little confused as to where I got my information then. Either way, it worked for me! i took out my shrimp n hermits, and dosed half a pill. Within an hour I saw them starting to move around and fall off my sps. For me the proof is in the pudding. But my mistake as I can't seem to find anything either..

Well I would be quite interested to see an actual test done. I do have a hard time finding much that really backs this up. But I could have sworn i read lots of info backing this up before or I don't know why I would have used it or why another member would have told me they had success with it as well? And if it doesn't work do you have an explanation of why my tank no longer has any? Other than Interceptor I haven't added anything. And they are gone so it had to of worked?

The guy claimed to also have red bug, hence the interceptor.
Just like flatworms most dips don't kill redbug

Still waiting for an explanation as to why it worked for me then? Also waiting for other members on here who have had success with it to chime in lol.
